Among the Gas.Wells.

A group Of burning wells north Of
Washington, Penn, has presented many
grand and beautiful night scenes.
Though several miles apart, they appear
at distan e, to be close together, and
their light intermingles. On a dark
night, with all of them burning, they
make a great show. These wells in
full blast-with those fanking them on
the right ard on the left, with the broad
glare OF those at Wcllsburg, w. Va,
showing twenty miles TO the northwest,
and with those at Murraysville, Pa,
thirty miles to the Fthtast-make a
scene which would terrify stranger, if
he should come upon 1t unawareof the
existence of such things as burning gas
wells. 1t would only need columns of
fiery lava to convince him that the whole
region was full of volcanoes. And his
terror would doubtless be complete when
he saw a great fiery column shoot syk-
ward, unless he was made aware of the
real cause Of the phenmenon, when he
would remain TO admire what a moment
before had filed him with alarm. The
explanation of the sudden burst of flame
is that it is necessary often to blow
OUT the wells and the pipes leading to
the regulator, to keep them from being
clogged by the salt which gathers in the
pipes from the saltwater thrown up by
the gas. The tow of the gas is stopped
for moment; and when again released,
the gas drives everything before it into
the open air. The escaping gas is burned
at the regulator. The effect of the sud-
den increased pressure is to shoot a
tongue of flame, Kissing and roaring,
high in the air On a misty night,
when the light is broken up and diffused
the snow covered hills sometimes
adding their reflection, -the whole sky
is brilliantly Illuminated, and the scene
is grand and beautiful Ni-hOlds.

E L. Akehurst stepped into John II.
Shcchan ~ Co.'S store the other day and
was waited upon by II. c. Hart, one of
the clerks. While Mr.. Akehurst was
picking out change to pay his bill from

remarked;

Dr. Monroe dropped Mr.. Akehurst's

Useful Hints.

POLISH FOR LEATHER CusmIoNs.
Erc.-Beat well the yolks of two eggs
and the white of one; mix a tablespoon
full of gin and a teasroonful of sugar
thicken it with ivory black, add it TO
the eggs, and use as common backing,
the seats or cushions being left day or
two to harden. This is good for dress
ing boots and shoes.
TME-T,BLE FOR Boiling VEGErA-
BLE>.-Potatoes, half an hour, unless
small, when rather less. Cabbage and
caulitlower, twenty-five minutes to half
an hour. Carrots and turnips, forty-fve
minutes when young, one hour in winter.
Bects, one hour in summer, one hour
and a half, or even two hours. if large.
in winter. Onions, medium size, one
hour.
To STARCH LINEN.-To do up shirts
take two tablespoonfuls of starch and
one teaspoon even full of powdered
borax, and dissolve in one and one-half
cups of cold water. The shirts must not
be previously starched, and they must be
perfectly dry. Dip the cuffs, collars,
bosoms and neck bands in the starch,
then roll up tight in a dry cloth, AID let
them lie two hours. Then rub off and
iron. They will be like pasteboard and
have nice gloss.
REMOVING STAINS FROM MARBLF.-
To remove stains from marble, first take
Of soda two Parts, powdered pumice
stone one part and powdered chalk one
part. Rub these ingredients well togeth-
er in a mortar. sift through fine sieve,
and mix the powder obtained into
paste with water; rub them all over the
and wash with soap and water.
Or mix strong soap lees with quicklime
to the consistency of thin cream; spread
The mixture over the marble, and after
he lapse Of twenty-four hours wash with
soap and water. This will remove stains
md restore the color.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

Speech is the golden harvest following
the Towering of thought
II thing is not right, don't do it; if
it it is not true, don't say it.
It is happy thing for US that this is
really all we have TO concern ourselves
about-what to do next.
Opportunities are very sensitive things.
If you slight them on their first visit,
they seldom come again.
Dc is happy whose cir, umstances suit
his temper; but he Is more excellent who
can suit his temper to any circumstances.
Reflect upon your present blessings,
of which every man has many, not on
youi past misfortune, OF which oil men
hare some.
Our sentiments, our thoughts, our
words lose their rectitude on entering
certain minds, just as sticks plunged in
the water look bent.
If a man does not make new acquaint-
snces as he advances through life, he
will soon find himself alone. \ man,
saws DR.. Johnson, should keep his friend
ship in constant repair.
The memory is perpetually looking
back when we have nothing present to
entertain US; it is like those repositories
in animals that are filed with stores of
food, on which they may ruminate when
their present pasture fails.
To strive to forget enemies, or to
throw out to them only friendly thought,
is as much an act of self-protection as it
is to put up your hands TO ward off
physical blow. The persistent thought
Of friendliness turns aside thought of
ill.will, and renders it harmless.

Home Life in the Country.

Too many of our farmers homes are
merely so in name They are not homes
only places to stay. Do not think we
are insinuating that you must rush right
off and spend 5 900 in buying new fur
niture. carpets and an organ. Not at all.
One of the "homeiestr places we ever
saw was one that was entirely innocent
Of any extravaganza in that line Three
hundred dollars would have covered the
cost of all the furniture in the house, but
it was place We always enjoyed visit
ing. The head of the family was always
Jolly and ready to take hand in game,
and his nine children, always hearty and
full of fun, did not care to be out in the
evenings. The girls did sewing and
knitting as they grew old enough, and
the boys were often found making
someihing;" but no evening passed that
one did not have something to read to
the others-an anecdote or story
something either to amuse or instruct.
But the main secret of their happiness,
If it was secret, lay in the fact that
worrying and fretting were banished.
One growler or fretter will spoil whole
family. Fathers, mothers. don't allow
a fault-finding spirit to spoil the pleasure
of your family circle. ron't indulge in
it yourselves. Have as coy and COM
Portable home as you can afford, but
don't mourn over what You have not.
Rather rejoice in what you have and be
thankful. -Ndtioaai St0ckmaa.

Boring for Gas.

Boring for gas is exactly like boring
for oil, in all its workings but the after
operations Of pumping and packing, as
in the case Of some oil-wells to raise the
oil, are not necessary in gas-wells. II
the gas IS there, it will come up Of its
own free will and accord. and come with
rush, blowing tools aud everything else
out OF the we'll before it. Indeed. gas
men would often be as glad to keep their
treasure down a oil men are to get theirs
up. The great pressure at which it is
confined in the earth, and the correspond
ing fore with which it escapes from the
well, make it somewhat hard to mangCS
or control This pressure is enormous
as high as five hundred pounds to tho
square inch in some cases where it ha
not been gagged, the pressure is esti
mated to have reached eight hundseC
pounds to the square inch. Any attempt
to confne the gas in this well for thel
purpose Of measuring it would doubtless
have resulted in sending iron casing
flying from the well, or in producing
other effects more startling and costlyl
than satisfactory or agreeable. Indeed,
until recently, no plan had been Devised
by which the flow of gas from a we'll
could be stopped or reduced. The guam
THY Of gas that escapes from some wells
is enormous, but probably no correct esti-
mate OF 1t has yet bean made. Wherel
the gas IS ''pipedr away to mills and |
houses, all that comes from the well may
be used; but if it is not all used, the re
mainder must be allowed to escape into
the air. This is dore at the regulator,
where 1t IS burned. The regulator is an
ar angement of pipes and valves, placed I
between the gas-well and the town sup
Piled with the gas. 1t allows only just
as much gas as is beng burned in theI
town TO go on through tn pipes, and so
reduces to proper and safe point thet
dangerously high pressure of the gas AL
it comes rushing along from the well.
The Temperature Of the gas as it comes
from the wells is about forty-fve del
grees, Fahrenheit. St. Nladolds. l

The Sea.

The Temperature OF the sea is the same,
varying only trife from the ice Of the
pole 70 the burning sun Of the equator.
A mile down the water has a pressure of
over ton 10 the square inch. II box six
feet deep were filed with sea water, and
allowed 20 eyaporate under the sun, there
would be two inches Of salt left on the
bottom Taking the average depth of
the ocean 10 be three miles, there would
be a layer Of pure salt 30 feet thick on
the led of the Atlantic. The water is
colder AZ the bottom than st the surface.
In the many bays on the COST of Nor
way the water often freezes at the bot
tom before it does above. Waves are very
deceptive. To look at them in a storm
one would think the water travelled. The
water stays in the same place, but the
motion goes on. Sonetimes in storms
these waves are forty feet high, and
travel fifty miles an hour, more
than twice as fast as the swiftest
steamer. The distance from valley to
valley is generally fifteen times the
height, hence a wave five feet high will
extend over scventy-fye feet of water.
Evaporation is wonderful power in
drawing the water from the sea Every
year a lsyer Of the entire sea, fourteen
feet thick, is taken up into the clouds.
The wind bears their burden into the
land, and the water comes down in ran
upon the feds to flow back at las.
through rivers. The depth of the sea
presents an Interesting problem. If the
Atlantic were lowered Q. j6i feet, the
distance from shore to shore would be
hslfas great, or 800 miles. If lowered
. little more than three miles, say 10. $50
feet. there would be road Of dry land
from newfoundland to Ireland. This is
the place on which the Great Atlantic
cables were laid. The Mediterranean is
comparatively shallow. A drying up of
$50 feet would leave three distinct seas,
and Africa would be joined with Italy.
The British Channel is more like a
pond, which accounts for its choppy
waves.
